Manager: We lost our best engineer today.
CEO: The one leading payments?
Manager: Yes.
CEO: Did another company offer more money?
Manager: No.
CEO: Then why leave?
Manager: He said he was tired of fixing the same production issues every week.
CEO: That’s part of the job.
Manager: He didn’t mind fixing issues. He minded that nobody wanted to fix the root cause.
CEO: We prioritized speed.
Manager: He wanted quality.
CEO: So he left over that?
Manager: He left because he felt like a firefighter, not an engineer.
Good engineers don’t just want to solve problems.
They want to eliminate them.
